Mr Mahmood staggered into Dixi Chicken takeaway on the High Street, Brierley Hill, Dudley shortly before 5pm on Saturday 15th October 2016, having been stabbed in the stomach after an altercation. Despite the best efforts of emergency services he later died in hospital from a cardiac arrest.

The charity Crimestoppers is now offering a reward of up to £2,000 for information that leads to Niron Parker-Lee’s arrest.*

Pauline Hadley, Crimestoppers’ Regional Manager for the West Midlands, said: “A young man has lost his life in tragic circumstances after being attacked in broad daylight on a busy street in Dudley. The victim was a married man who cared for his wife.

“It’s now urgent that key suspect 18-year-old Niron Parker-Lee is found as he is wanted for questioning regarding this crime. He is described as dangerous and should not be approached by members of the public. Someone will know where he is which is why we have put up a reward for information that leads to his arrest.”
